The new lost in space.
Significant improvement over the old one.
Not sure whether I prefer the old doc Smith Self serving cowardly bastard or the new one Phsyco, kill em all and let Satan sort 'em out.

Finished season 2 of Jessica Jones

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2357547/episodes?season=2

A reasonably OK follow up but to be honest it misses out on not having a decent villain like season one's Killgrave so suffers accordingly, a few nods to the Marvel comic books but on the whole it didn't rock my world.
Have to hope that the forthcoming 2nd season of Luke Cage fares better.

That's actually the reason I'm enjoying S02 so much. I'd couldn't watch a lot of s01, Kilgrave was just too cruel for me. I only tuned in to the final episode to make sure she killed the cnut.

Corner Gas Animated. On the one hand, if they could get together to do the voices, why can't they get together to make another series...on the other hand, it is Corner Gas.

Watching today the last two episodes of Black Lightning season 1.

Also started watching Legion season 2 - just the first episode is way more bizarre than the whole season 1. I love it.

Enjoying this show very much. What I particularly like is they have the correct period uniforms, haircuts and weapons and are following the 1940's selection criteria and training.

You also get some history / insight into some of the real wartime heroes/heroines who served their country bravely and at great cost.

The always excellent Mark Strong stars as a 'retired' MI-6 assassin.
3 episodes in and shaping up to be a lively and compelling spy drama.

I'm holding off on this 'till I finishing re-watching season one. There was so much subtext I missed the first time around. I never picked up on the different Westworld logos signifying the different timelines for starters.

That's EXACTLY what I'm doing too.

Someone brought me the DVD for Christmas and although I've already watched it once since then I'm going to do it again.

And although I've formulated many ideas and theories has to what may happen this time round I've been doing my utmost to avoid any press articles about it so has to avoid any spoilers.
